Oh, how I wish, I wish... I had a sea of time, just a little more patience and the talent to plan ahead. My head is completely filled with fabulous new things to crochet and new crochet patterns to try out. There must be at least 4 works in progress laying around the house (hey, I've had more in the past!) and yet, yet I would absolutely love to start the Spirits of life wrap. Should I?

My crochet buddy Tatiana of Lilla Björn Crochet designed the Spirits of life wrap and she explains: 'Recently, I have been looking into native American textile and fibre art and my wrap is inspired by this. Of course I didn't want to copy any pattern, each element of the shawl is just my own imagination.'

The pattern of the Spirits of life wrap will be published on Tatianas website (and in a Facebook group), as a CAL. The pattern will be published in several languages: English UK and US, Dutch, Spanish, German, French, Hebrew, Swedish, Afrikaans, Polish and Finnish. The CAL will start on October 18th and you'll be able to finish your wrap before Christmas.

The wrap is made with a combo of Scheepjes Spirit and Catona yarn, which I think will give a lovely effect (ever since making the Scarf of hearts I am a big fan of mixing yarns in one project). Tatiana came up with three different colourways for the kits: Spirit of the Lake (greens and blues), Spirit of the Volcano (yellows, reds and pinks) and Spirit of the Orchid (greens, blues and purples). The kits are available at Scheepjes retailers, if you are based in the US or Canada, you can get the kits over at Knotty House.
Als ik zo eens snel kijk, zie ik al corner-to-corner steke en spike-stitches, die ik erg leuk vind om te maken. Dus ik ga er nog eens over nadenken. Heb jij al een leuk project in de planning voor komende herfst?

Just from a glance I see C2C and spike stitches being used, two of my favourite stitches. So I guess I better think hard and deep to join in on the fun. So how about you, have you planned a project for fall yet?
